My 5 favourite Christmas cards of 2018

Hello Everyone, 
I hope you are all ready for the big day tomorrow.  I haven't done half the jobs that I intended to do but if it isn't done now it's not going to be  done. I'm just about to sit down with Tom and Emma to watch Nativity on DVD. Love that film.
I haven't made many Christmas cards this year so I didn't have too many to choose my top 5 from...anyway here they are....

This was a larger 8" square card and I was really pleased with the way this turned out.

This snowman comes out every year so has to be in my top 5 as it's one of my all time favourite stamps

I just can't resist these fairies

This could be one of my new all time favourite stamps. I had intended to make lots of cards with her but ran out of time...maybe next year?!

And finally I always enjoy colouring this little group of carol singing snowmen.

I'd like to wish you all a very HAPPY CHRISTMAS

Bugaboo Snowmen

Hello Everyone, 
I can't believe that I haven't made a card since the 1st December, and I seem to have given up even trying to get cards made to send out for Christmas! Anyway here is a quick one that I made for Emma to give to one of her friends. 

I've used a Bugaboo image for this one...

I've coloured them with promarkers and the background paper is from Craftwork Cards. I've used a Marianne Creatables fence die and a Crafts too snowflake. The sentiment is from Lili of the Valley.

I'd like to enter the following challenges:-


I will try and get round to visiting all your blogs over the coming weekend to see all your fabulous makes.
